Absolutely fabulous. I used red cabbage and savoy cabbage instead of the packaged mix. It turned out great. Dinner party guests liked it so much they begged for the recipe. Will definitely make this one again and again.

This recipe makes a great quantity. I get asked for the recipe often. I used one package of ramen noodles and added 1 cup bean sprouts, 1/2 cup chopped fresh snow peas, 2 tbsps. cilantro and 1 tsp. ginger. I substituted peanuts for cashews.

My husband was skeptical of this recipe when I made it, but now it's his favorite side dish! It is quick and easy to make. I only soak the noodles for about 5 minutes, and I used red wine vinegar instead of white wine vinegar. Will definitely make over and over again!

This is excellent. As suggested I used oriental flavored noodles and did not have white wine vinegar so I used red wine vinegar. It turned out great!!!! I did not soak the noodles - I just broke them in small chunks and they turned out great.

I am known in my circle of friends to try new recipes on them when we have a gathering. This salad was a definite hit!! I made a few changes - such as using olive oil instead of veggie oil and I used a large can of mandarin oranges. I only had sunflower seeds so I doubled them and left out the cashews and also did not soak the noodles.

I served this at a party and everyone loved it. I agree with several other reviewers though that the serving size is way off. I doubled the recipe and there was so much cole slaw. The recipe is probably for about 12 people as is. Everyone wanted the recipe though. Thank you.

I made a few adjustments. I cut the oil in half and I only soaked the noodles for 5 minutes so they would be a little less soft than cooked Raman noodles. I used apple cider vinegar because that is what I had on hand and I used olive oil to make it more health-friendly. It was delicious! My kids loved it too!

I thought this recipe was fantastic! I made it for a church picnic and everyone loved it! Since it was hot outside it was refreshing to eat a sweet cold pasta salad! I had multiple people asking me for the recipe including the minister of my church. To anyone that makes this I suggest that you don't soak the noodles any longer than the 15 min. I did and they were just a little too soft but that was my own fault. Other than that I followed the recipe exactly and it was a huge hit!!!

This is my favorite coleslaw recipe now! I only had oriental flavored ramen noodles so I used it instead of the chicken and I also skipped soaking the noodles and left them crunchy. Very good!!

i made this for a party we were having and mother had asked me to bring to different dishes. I went to the market to purchase the items for this salad, my local grocery store didn't have the white wine vinegar, so it some of the other similar recipes they used rice vingegar so that's what i used. I was very disappointed with this salad especially because of all the good rating it got. It just didn't even have a good flavor at all. It was too vinergary. does the white wine vinegar have a different taste that the rice vinegar. If so how, sweeter, more bitter or what? Is cooking white wine the same as white wine vinegar? Probally will not make again unless someone can answer my above questions and I can find the white wine vinegar.

I didn't care for this and hubby just said it was ok. I made it for a BBQ and noone really ate it. One person was allergic to sunflower seeds so thank goodness I left those off, but still noone touched it. Very disappointed.

Great side dish! Add cooked chicken and it then becomes a main meal. I never have any leftovers with this one!

Very yummy! I didn't have the cashews so I used the toasted almonds. I also had a head of cabbage I wanted to use up so I shredded cabbage and carrots in the food processor instead of using the coleslaw mix. This recipe was great. We mill make this again for sure. Thank you!

I have several versions of this recipe and this is my favoite. Definitely a good idea to add dressing just before serving so the cashews don't get too soggy. (However that certainly doesn't stop me from inhaling any leftovers!) Made it once with almonds instead of cashews. It was fine; but I think the cashews are the perfect complement (and I do love almonds in recipes).

I confess--after I finished this recipe, I taste-tasted beyond what is chef-like. I must have had twenty bites before I summoned the discipline to finally "say no" to another bite. This is one of the best salads I've ever had. It's perfect for a summer cookout. No doubt, I will use this as a staple side dish when I'm looking for something wonderful and delicious. Crunchy and sweet ... Asian like ... a recipe you won't soon forget. I'm going to remember the liquid as a possible base for other side dishes, such as a bean salad. Excellent, just excellent.
